Farmers' hopes washing away
Flooded fields another blow to beleaguered food industry
The flood of 2011 is having disparate effects on urban and rural Manitoba, as cities and towns remain largely dry while agricultural producers are bracing for another year of losses.
But these two solitudes of flooding are more connected than many city dwellers realize. The fate of farms in southern Manitoba, one of the world's most productive agricultural regions, has implications far beyond the province's borders.
Not only can a major flood affect the price of grocery staples such as bread and cooking oil in Canada, it can exacerbate food-security concerns for people already struggling to feed themselves halfway around the world.
"It's amazing when you think about it," said Kreesta Doucette, executive director of Food Matters Manitoba, a non-profit organization that tries to raise awareness about food security.
"We tend to feel we're insulated from the food riots," she said, referring to recent events in India, Haiti and several African nations. "Most of the food we grow is exported around the world. We eat very little of what we produce."
Even in a nightmare scenario, Manitoba is in no danger of losing its ability to feed itself. A handful of large grain and vegetable farms could feed all 1.2 million people in the province, Doucette said.
But Manitoba's ability to help feed the world is diminished when farmers quit the business, as thousands have in recent decades. Manitoba lost 2,023 of its 21,071 farms between 2001 and 2006, the year of the most recent Canadian census, a drop of 9.6 per cent over five years.
The reasons behind the drop are numerous. Grain prices have fluctuated, along with the cost of inputs such as fertilizer and pesticides. The Canadian dollar soared, rendering pork uncompetitive. BSE devastated the cattle industry. The difficulty of the farming lifestyle discourages children from following in their parents' footsteps.
Farmers in the flood zone -- which this year stretches across all 11.6 million acres of Manitoba cropland -- also have the headaches of cleaning up debris, seeding late in the season and not being able to take advantage of favourable prices.
"If you can't access your land to grow, then you're in a real pickle," said Betty Green, a cattle farmer in the RM of Fisher, which has suffered from overland and river flooding for three years in a row.
Conservatively, she estimates one-third of the 1,000 acres she tends with two other families are under water. This has forced the farm to buy feed, eating up profits in what should have been a fruitful year.
One of Green's partners has left for Alberta in order to make money. Succession issues loom in the future.
"We're losing farmers in almost every area," she said, referring to the cattle industry. "We would have, anyway, because we're going through intergenerational change, but the problem is we're not finding the replacements.
"There's vast amounts of pasture land not being utilized anymore."
Some of this land has become summer homes for city residents. Land that remains dedicated to agriculture usually gets added to larger operations, which tend to be more profitable -- but come with food-security concerns of their own.
"When you get a lot of large-scale production, you wind up with monocultures," said Doug Chorney, an East Selkirk farmer who serves as president of Keystone Agricultural Producers, an umbrella organization for Manitoba farmers.
"And as we lose (rural population) density, we lose our ability to adapt to changes in the market."
There's no way to tell how many more farmers will throw in the towel after a single flood, but the cumulative effects of frequent flooding is exacting a toll, Chorney said.
On the plus side, people in cities are becoming more aware of the conditions farmers face and food security as a whole.
"It's easy to become complacent about going to Safeway and Superstore and Sobeys and buying all your groceries," he said. "You take your ability to produce food locally for granted when the shelves are full."

Tainted Food Leads To Costly Illnesses
From salmonella in black pepper to E.coli in ground beef, there's been a steady stream of stomach-turning problems with food that underscore the safety gaps in the nation's food supply.
Now the nonprofit Produce Safety Project at Georgetown University, which is pressing for comprehensive safety standards for fruit and vegetables, is out with an analysis that says the full cost of foodborne illness is a lot higher than previously thought. Try $152 billion a year.
That figure is a several time higher than previous estimates. One reason: It put a dollar figure on the pain and suffering caused by the illnesses. Strip that out, and you still get a cost of $103 billion a year.
If you thought that eating a vegetarian diet would spare you from food risks, think again. The report says illnesses related to fruits and vegetables account for $39 billion in health-related losses. Remember that problem with bagged spinach a few years back?
The previous benchmark for the cost of foodborne illnesses was a 1997 report from the Agriculture Department that came up with a figure of $35 billion. But, as the Los Angeles Times notes, that estimate included fewer types of bacteria and didn't reflect the economic hit to people's quality of life.
However much money the illnesses cost, the bottom line is that a lot people get sick from what they eat. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention figures there are about 76 million illnesses in the U.S. each year, landing about 325,000 people in the hospital. About 5,000 people probably die from the illnesses in the U.S. each year.

Pineapple Banana Smoothie
Sweet and Tasty. A concoction I made up to get rid of the banana close to death.
4 Oranges
½ Pineapple
½ Banana
1 Lemon, Optional
Juice the oranges in a citrus juicer. Then blended the orange juice, banana and pineapple in the blender. Drink and Enjoy!
It is very sweet. I don't like bananas so I adding a tiny bit of ginger to drown out the taste. If you think the drink is too sweet then add a lemon juiced. I did that and it was still good. It should look like a light orange Pina Colada when your done.
5 reponses to "Pineapple Banana Smoothie"
1. Moncler Jackets For Women is
Moncler Jackets For Women is of best top quality and fashionably designed. When everywhere are fulled with Moncler Jackets this winter, let's have a good understanding of the material and function. There are many benefits from Moncler Down. Firstly, down insulation keeps the body much warmer, because it retains heat far better than synthetic materials. Secondly, down of the Womens Moncler Jackets On Sale is natural; it 'breathes' thus allowing it to lift moisture away from the body and eliminating odors easily.
You don't like bananas?! o_O you're CRAZY! Just kidding. But really--you thought that half a banana's flavour was so strong that you had to drown it out?! Haha, I usually add 1-2 bananas to my smoothies for thickness. And I couldn't even taste the banana it was so sweet.I like really thick smoothies, and so this was a little to thin for me to really love the texture. But yeah, it was so sweet--really woke me up--absolutely delicous! I added to the lemon juice--which makes it taste REALLY lemon-y.

Tue. 7/8/08 11:32pm
I second the Gold Dust Woman request! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:34pm
It's pronounced Yeah-elle. Sort of. More like Yehl, I think. It's an acronym, not a "real" French name. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:35pm
GD Woman for TD Woman! (Besides, Lindsey Buckingham rules and I want to set a precedent for B-day requests!) | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:35pm
Acronym for what, Laurie? | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:35pm
It's pronounced "yell". All she did was combine the words "yeah" and "elle". | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:38pm
It's actually an acronym for "You Enjoy Life." | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:40pm
Wooden shjips?! Give unto me a break! (> 1/4 Skansk, so I'm entitled to complain.) Laurie, I like that explanation so much I don't care if it's right. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:41pm
jeez, talk about a pregnant pause! Toni, will this do as a birthday request? I don't think gold dust woman will fly. (sorry, HotRod!) | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:42pm
why is it i've always really liked those guys but they weird me out at the same time? Is it the silent j? | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:42pm
NO YOU DI'NT!!!! BBBBBBut you did! actually, this confirms my opinion that this show RULZ! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:42pm
That is correct, Laurie...according to wiki. I should've written that it's a "portmanteau" of "yeah" and "elle". Ah, oui oui. C'est bon! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:43pm
I've always thought Wooden Shjips should have a song called "Crosby, Stills, and Njash" | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:43pm
the silent j is annoyjing, i agree. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:43pm
I heard it was "Kiss My F--king Di-ck, Man" No, wait, that's someone else. [Yay, Hot Chocolate!] | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:44pm
[Yay, Hot Chocolate!] Well, yes! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:45pm
I heard this a few weeks back on Joe McGasko's show and I wrote to him saying it always reminds me of the movie Detroit Rock City and the amazing performance by "Dickie" the bartender. It still does! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:45pm
toni daytona:
yes evan,,thank you for thinkin of me your verry sweet,,love ya=)=)=) | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:45pm
Oh man! EFD's not a fan of Gold Dust Woman? I think I'm offended. Let me check....ummm...yes, I am very offended. **wipes away tears** | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:46pm
Happy birthday. You missed a great chance this morning with Hatch. He was asking for birthday requests. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:47pm
HotRod, did he make you cry? Make you break down? Shatter your illusions of love? I'm with you on that, by the way! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:48pm
it's Stevie Nicks that's the problem, frankly. I do like some non-SN Fleetwood Mac songs, for whatever that's worth. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:48pm
How young are you today, Toni D? | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:49pm
Tusk! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:49pm
Aw, c'mon. Sure, it's a school night, but just this once an exception could be made for bday Gold Dust Woman. ?!?!?!? Laurie: we can has lioncubs update? | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:49pm
If Stevie's the problem, then how about Hole's cover version on The Crow: City of Angels soundtrack? | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:49pm
(first time an FMU DJ has had to defend his *dislike* of Fleetwood Mac??) | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:50pm
I often wonder if the people who are listening, but not privvy to the comments, have any idea what's going on. OMFG Hatch. I was the one who made EFD's class creds. Evan, the film was a-frickin-mazing. This is not the place (or time) for a review, but can we work something out? | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:50pm
It's all going to hell. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:50pm
Fleetwood Mac the British blues band is excellent. Fleetwood Mac the California Pop band, not so much. But c'mon, it's the lady's birthday, Ev. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:51pm
toni d.:
hotrod--i'll be 27 on saturday,,i'm goin to wildwod WHOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:52pm
TD, sorry I jinxed your B-day request,,,,,,, I owe you summin'. I say double down on requests! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:52pm
Are you going to also tell us that you hate puppies, cotton candy and rainbows too??? For the love of Stevie! | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:53pm
Now, for me, it's California pop, si! British blues, no! One man's opinion. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:53pm
Sybil: seriously. I expected to hear half the country chortling at John's comment [Tusk!], but the streets, they are quiet. efd: I share your antipathy. I go so far as to shout at the screen whenever a "scarf over the lampshade" prop appears. Which happens in Buffy vs. Dracula, thus ruining the otherwise totally effing stellar episode. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:55pm
if there was a Trailmix version of Gold Dust Woman, a la You Make Lovin' Fun, I'd be all over it. | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:57pm
Maybe you could play some clips from Family Guy instead? | |
Tue. 7/8/08 11:59pm

paul madvig:
do you have any SPY SOUNDTRACKS | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:00am
efd; Stevie Nicks wrote one single song that made me rethink my hatred of her: that would be "Landslide". I think Dixie Chicks did a much better version. And I'm too tired to argue this further. Every 1's a winner baby. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:02am

where's the swag already? i didn't give dough to get swag, but i have a few choice items coming (i won the "Sound Art" book/cd) and i'd sure like 'em woooo! | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:03am
I move the discussion is over because it is literally impossible to argue with anyone whilst listening to Steinski | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:04am

dis don't sound like no pollack.... | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:05am
Eric Burdon... anyone who plays... has my undying love... | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:05am
Yes! It's me! I'm glad I got to hang out tonight, I'm going out of town next week for two weeks. Sybil -- It was the somg "Storms" that made me totally rethink my position on Stevie Nicks, and I did a total 180. Weird. Agreed about Steinski, for sure. Let's hug it out. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:08am
Joe, darn his Yankees-loving heart. had made me rethink everything. More later. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:09am
Haha, I meant pick up, NOT break up. Amanda, will you be hanging in the Heights on 7/23? | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:11am
Sybil, I have to ask... Are you down with Black Man's Burdon? | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:12am
Oh wait, will you be back by 7/30? 8/6? | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:12am
I brake for Steinski. And I loved Storms too. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:12am
Well yeah, ... and OPP. ;-) | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:13am
Will be there tomorrow, but then won't be back in NY until the 27th. If you're there you can pour one out on the patio for me. 7/30 and 8/6 are go! | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:13am
Yeah, I know you. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:13am
man, i cannot keep up with you all tonight! plus there are ants in the studio, yuck. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:14am
did i miss a Norwegian Lion update? | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:14am

toni d.:
one more thing,,evan & hotrod thank you very much for your support & for thinkin 'bout me HAPPY B-DAY 2 ME | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:15am
I'll probably see you on 8/6 then, since Matt won't be there on 7/30. Have fun getting away! | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:15am
what's up with the swag? | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:16am
Forgive my pedantry, but I'm unaccountably bothered by a band that has half its name in Greek and half in Latin. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:18am
I believe in the left handed? | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:18am
I heard that more swag has been going out recently. There were some hard-working volunteers at the station yesterday...maybe today as well. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:20am
Yay! I'll see you/Matt in August! I have it from a good source that a bunch of swag shipped this week, but I don't want to specify in case that's wrong or partially right. I'm just psyched to wear my hoodie on my vacation down South. Yay also for Spiritualized. A belated yay. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:21am
Left-handed glory, perhaps. Could refer to David Ortiz. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:25am
Last year I didn't get my 7sec Delay swag until December, just in time for tax purposes. Well worth the wait, though. It was a murder mystery TV spoof w/lots of FMU "Air Personalities". Recognizably FMU, even though TV instead of FM. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:28am
Speaking of 7sd, have you checked your voicemail recently, Evan? | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:29am
omg i forgot all about that!! thanks for the reminder, Joe! | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:30am
For the record, I knew that Fake Evan was fake within like... 20 seconds. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:31am
oh, i didn't even hear the actual show! I just got that message.... clearly i need to check out the archive. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:34am
This Frustration track is great! | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:34am
Yes, apparently there's an Evan "Impostor" Davies running around, somewhere. You should probably let your significant other know. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:35am
love me some xray spexs | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:36am
now if only i could figure out how to play that message on the air! HotRod, the whole Frustration CD is pretty good! | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:40am
A friend of mine turned a bunch of hilarious voicemails into mp3... he's a crazy audio guy though, not sure what program he used. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:43am
I guess you could use speakerphone, but it would sound terrible... I'm very intrigued by this whole 7SD conspiracy about which I know nothing. Guess I should head to the archives myself. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:45am
a winner:
evan i sent you mail,,oxox | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:46am
Okay, here's the scoop "The easiest way to do this is get a cable that is male stereo jack on both ends, Plug one into your phone (it should have a headphone jack) and the other into your PC. Then use a program such as audacity to record it" | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:50am
thanks, Joe. I am hoping that since I am at an actual radio station I can take advantage of the technology at hand to play it over the air. We'll see. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:51am
Hey! The Bears' singer sounds like he's E "Impostering" Davies. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:53am
The Bears is The Psychodots with Adrian Belew -- who are these Bears? | |
Wed. 7/9/08 12:53am
yeah, these are different Bears - i'll check the cd booklet in a minute | |
Wed. 7/9/08 1:17am
I... have definitely fallen off on my Deutsch hip-hop. Wow. Spectacular. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 1:19am
The delivery = pouty-tacular. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 1:20am
well, that wasn't ideal but you got the idea... | |
Wed. 7/9/08 1:21am
The EFD Show: Starting with a 7SD phone message, then the 70's, every week from now on. I swear I wasn't listening. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 1:22am
You mean that wasn't a remix? | |
Wed. 7/9/08 1:22am
Aahahaha.... classic. FYI: the point of the show was Andy trying to call DJs who had, in his estimation, bad timeslots, so they could complain about them to Ken, on-air. | |

this song has another 5 minutes to go. All in favor of cutting it short, say "aye" | |
Wed. 7/9/08 1:28am
Joe, am I to assume he and Ken get the "Best" time slot? (I wonder how that happened) We know this is not "The Best Show" on FMU, so Andy may have some point. [GONG] I think I get the gist of The Fall already. | |
Wed. 7/9/08 1:29am
And yet here no one was, needing that there contextual hint. Oh, the jocularity! I actually did listen pretty regularly to the 7SD, until I called in with a streetfight story one day, having just read about my streetfight story in someone else's not-actually-fiction short story collection, but which story's delivery was judged "too polished" so probably made up. I guess I'm still scarred. [aye] | |
Wed. 7/9/08 1:29am
Aye, aye. I don't think it's the "best" time slot... I think Andy is just a jerk. Bob Brainien was the only DJ who picked up, and he actually hung up, midsentence. It's funny if you like "cringe" radio. | |

it says: "He was a lone wolf. He looked different, sounded different and he presented his beliefs in a way that rang true. Larry Norman knows what he's doing, and if you haven't noticed, you should." | |

New device support?
Since a few days I own a 4FFF N618. Although it has been sold as the "Promedia ebook reader" in the Netherlands.
Now I discovered OpenInkpot, so I was wondering: is it possible to get this to work on my recently bought ereader? It is not yet listed in the hardware list as far I have seen, but that doesn't necessarily mean it is not going to work, right Ok, a little about the hardware of the 4FFF N618 as far as I know: -Sipix screen (16 grades of gray) -Samsung 2416 ARM9 400Mhz processor -128MB RAM -WIFI -3,5mm JACK -MicroSDHC card reader -MicroUSB connector -2GB internal memory (800MB free for user) So, the question is: will it work? And if it is not working at this moment, is it hard to make it work? I do not know how OpenInkpot is build (except that I know it is linux based). The current firmware of the N618 is also linux based... Do you need more information? I am using Linux, so if I have to try a few commands or whatever, just let me know. I am not experienced in alternative firmware, but I will try what I can do Thanks |

When I started this page all those years ago to chronicle the collecting of the RR series, I had no idea such a cult following would ensue. Soon, emails poured in from all over the US, and even a few international messages. "We love our Amana!," "Where can I find part X,Y,Z," "What year is my machine?" and "Can you fix mine?". Dripping with chrome, exuding class, style, and workmanship, the Amana Radarange was the first popular home microwave oven. Introduced in 1967, it set the bar for the competition for years to come. |
Update: Feb 2015 - Trays are in short supply but it never hurts to inquire. The $40 Panel Repair offer is still in effect, contact me for details! |
Early Trays (RR-2 to RR-4D) | $35 + S&H. |
Late Trays (RR-4D to End of Production) | 1 left at $30 + S&H |
Knobs, switches and trim pieces are often available on a model by model basis. | Contact me. |
Mechanical Timers (as available) | $30 + S&H |
Interior Splash Shield – Both early and late styles are available for replacement. No case removal needed. | $25 + S&H |
Stirrer – The metal "fan blade" assembly above the interior splash shield is known as a 'stirrer'. While I'm not sure how one might fail, if you need a replacement, I have both the early and late air driven styles available. | $10 + S&H |
Door Seals/Chokes- The second biggest request I receive is for replacement door plastic interior pieces. These are very tough to find without cracks of delamination (deterioration appears to be the result of high temperatures and prolonged humidity). |
See "doors" below. |
***The below items require access to the internal parts of the machine for replacement and should be performed by a qualified technician only! Dangerous voltages may be present, even with the machine off and unplugged. Do not attempt repairs yourself!*** | |
Magnetrons – Restore cooking performance to new! I carry both new and good-used magnetrons for machines circa 1977 and newer (nameplate marking on rear will read 1500 Watts for these machines). |
Out of Stock |
Control Panels | See the Repair Service |
Doors – Door integrity is essential to safe machine operation. If your interior plastic is delaminating, cracked or burnt, the safest solution is to R&R the door with a complete assembly. While the job is straightforward, it does require case removal. Chrome door complete with glass, arms and hinge assm: |
Door Springs - Too many machines hit the curb because a broken door spring caused an interlock switch to open and trip the fuse. Springs are available for the RR and RRL series. | $5 + S&H |
Solenoid/Lock – Good used door lock solenoids are available. | $10 + S&H |
Temp Sensors/Switches- Cavity and magnetron overtemp limit switches are available in button and plastic rivet styles. Post-1980 machines use thermal fuses that remain open after overtemp. |
Interlock Switches and Assemblies- These switches and assemblies vary by model and production run but are mostly equivalent. Contact me for your exact needs. | $10-20 + S&H |
Blower Motor – These periodically fail, which is a bad deal because it can stress the magnetron and force an overtemp trip. Blower motors are available for most models. | Good used: $25 + S&H |
Plastic shields/housings/covers | Contact Me. |
Temp Probes: Specify Candy or Regular. | $10 + S&H |

The Collection Next came the Cookmatic series, which essentially cycled the magnetron electronically and allowed the user to set the percentage of time for a given cycle the magnetron was powered via a slide control. Touchmatic debuted with the RR-6 allowing digital time entry, but only a simple defrost function. The temp probe, programmable cooking and digital Cookmatic levels were to come. By the end of the 70's, some machines were given an updated control panel and vacuum fluroescent display rather than red LEDs and these machines were coded with a "TD" after the model number. Similarly, it appears RR-9's and RR-10's (Touchmatics and Touchmatic II's) could be had in the old-school chrome look or the stream-lined '70s smoked-plexi variety all at the same time. The "new" look has an RRL prefix rather than RR. Dates of machines in the collection confirm this phenomenon. There was also an RRH-10 model with a Heritage badge under the front controls that appears almost identical internally to the standard RR-10, but perhaps was a last hurrah in the chrome-door series while the new cost-reduced models took over. Overall, there are A LOT of different model numbers. |
Needed for Collection |
RR-1 (1967) Here's what I know... The RR-1 has an electromagnet for the magnetron and weighs in at 90lbs according to Amana service literature. These units have two buttons- START (green) and LIGHT (blue). Also, the timers are additive so you can get 5 + 25 min total. The 5 minute dial is on the bottom, while the 25 min dial is on the top. Early RR-1's have a matte chrome finish along the top and bottom horizontal recesses of the front. How does one stop the machine? By opening the door. |
RR-2 (1968) Essentially an RR-1 with the addition of a STOP button, however if this is not to your liking you can still open the door to stop cooking. The lower timer has been bumped up to 30min. Upper and lower timers swap locations where they will stay through the 4D series. The perforated door screen continues to lack clear glass and plastic panels on either side, making splatter cleanup difficult but letting cooking aromas waft out. Early RR-2's lack an end of cycle buzzer, while later ones make it standard, and have a slide switch under the bottom lip of the control panel to disable it (as it will sound continuously until you hit Stop). If you don't find your RR-2 model tag on the back, check on the bottom (how convenient!) |
RR-3H (1971) While the early RR's had dual interlock door protection, a new government mandate effective for 1971 required that one of the interlocks be mechanical in operation. The 3H was introduced with a sliding LOCK lever at the top of the control panel to be compliant. The Start button will not physically engage unless this lever is locked. When unlocking, it automatically pops the Start button back out and stops the machine. From my research, the RR-3H was offered for less than one year until the introduction of the RR-4 late in '71 Click HERE for the 3H Operating Instruction Page |
Did you know?
The early RR's have an air filter that should periodically be cleaned. These machines draw air through a vent in the bottom of the machine. Most of the time these filters have gone missing, but it never hurts to check. Be sure to pull your glass tray before you tilt the machine to avoid breakage. Clean filter with soapy water and air dry. | |
RR-4 Introduced in late 1971, the 4 loses the LOCK slider and in its place is an electrically operated solenoid that prevents the door from opening during cooking. This solenoid was used up through the end of the RR-series. The LIGHT button is no longer blue, but white. The green Start button gets a hue adjustment. -Panel in Collection - Machine Needed- |
RR-4D (D for Auto Defrost) According to my records, the 4D was released in 1974, and the 4DW in '75. The defrost function of the 4D is very distinctive as the magnetron is cycled on/off at a 50/50 duty cycle. The 4D also has a permanent-magnet type magnetron which reduces weight and complexity. RR-4DW After August 7th 1974, the gov't mandated that the (already required) secondary interlocks disable the machine if they were to fail or were bypassed. The idea being that the machine would then remain out of service until an authorized tech could make the necessary repairs since gaining access to the power-electronics requires drilling out a rivet and breaking a warranty seal. Also, up until this point, all RR's had motor driven stirrers, the 4DW introduces an air driven stirrer and eliminates this second motor. Note: The 4D & 4DW models must have proved very popular as there are quite a few of these still going strong in kitchens today. |
RR-5B* An interesting machine, nowhere does it say Cookmatic, but it offers Defrost and Slo-Cook. Note the "scrollwork" below the exhaust vent. Date of 1981. Includes end of cycle bell, but no COOK light. If someone were looking for a no-frills, dead-reliable machine, this would be it. RR references indicate a COOK light on Canadian 5Bs only, perhaps to satisfy Canadian regulations? *This machine was made in 1981 and chronologically comes after the 9TA and 10A models. |
RR-6W First of the digital RR's. Lots of chrome, digital controls, and a neat egg timer function. Punch in your desired time interval, hit the Timer button and the display counts down to 0, followed by a pleasing electronic tone. Manufacture date of 1976. RR-6 Also in collection, appears identical to the 6W, including internal components. Clearly the W stands for some change, but what is it? |
RR-7/7A The Cookmatic Series featuring a 5 minute timer, a 30 minute timer and a Cookmatic slider that controls cooking on-time from 10-100% each sec. via an electronic variable power control module. Circa 1979. (RR-7BET is the 50Hz version of the RR-7). Weight: 81 lbs. net. |
RR-7B The 7B appears to be equivalent to a 7A Conversion. It features a 30 min. timer on top and Cookmatic Percent Timer on bottom (10%-100% on-time). Circa '82. An indicator located in the area between the dials lights when the magnetron is powered on. |
RR-7DA Ah yes, the elusive 7DA, dated Jun 1979. From the exterior it's identical to the 5B except for two minor differences- a small COOK indicator between the knobs and the addition of an OFF setting on the lower knob. There are minor schematic differences compared to the 5B but not enough to justify an entirely new model. Both use transparent splash shields and both have motorized internal cycle timers to control the duty cycle for Slo Cook and Defrost. In fact, there are no power electronics in either model. |
Did you know?
Introduction of the temp probe: If you grew up with a Radarange, you know that lurking somewhere in the kitchen junk drawer was the Amana temp probe. There's actually two different probes- those with brown cords are for cooking and are rated up to 190F. Probes with white cords (that were sold separate from the RR) are for candy-making where temps are 230F or higher. |
RR-8 and R-8A A very feature-packed machine! Feb 1979, this RR features an electronic Cookmatic slide to control power from 10% to 100% like the 7A, but adds temp probe capability with a front-lit setpoint control and needle indicator for measuring food temp and hold operation. When the probe is plugged in, the Temp Control scale illuminates and the pointer indicates current temp. Turn the dial to increase the red area behind the scale and the machine will run to meet that temp, then enters a cycling hold-mode. |
RR-8B Consider this a 7B with an electronic temp slider at the top with hold LED. When the temp probe is connected the timer's contacts are bypassed. Note the slider is for temperature, not power level like the original 7A. |
RR-8T I have a theory this model was introduced to use up existing parts. It has the functionality of an RR-9 but the touchpad has been cost reduced- it uses dome switches rather than glass, and the LEDs have been replaced with a vac fluorescent display like the 'TD' series. There was also a 9TB released the same year with similar appearance. October 1981. |
RR-9 Combines the touchmatic features of the 6 with the variable cooking slider of the 7A. The 9T (below) improves on this concept by going completely digital and incorporating the temp probe. |
RR-9T This is the machine most people recognize instantly as a "Radarange". This landmark machine is the first to debut the Touchmatic name, incorporates both a digitally controlled Cookmatic Level, a digitally controlled temp probe and the capability to store two cooking programs. July 1978 and used daily. | ||
RR-9TA Between 1978 and 1981, a number of internal changes were made in the RR series including Cookmatics, mostly related to ease of assembly. The magnetron and power supply are still high quality. Machines with translucent splash shields are of the revised style while machines with solid-white splash shields are of the older design. 9TA's also have a cost reduced control panel (internally). And externally, the fill-in paint border of the 9T has been eliminated. The 9TA and 10A weigh in at 73 lbs. net. | ||
RR-10 The first Touchmatic II, manufacture dates suggest both the 10 and 9T were sold concurrently. The 10 adds two additional cooking programs for a total of four. There is also a programmable Start Time feature allowing one to set up cooking paramters and have the machine start cooking at an exact time up to 12 hours in advance. Sounds a little odd for a microwave, but with the temp probe, 4 programs and Cookmatic, one could defrost, slow-roast and temp-hold a ham over the course of an hour and have your meal ready as you walked in the door. This machine was manufactured Oct 1977. |
RRH-10 Yes, that's the correct model number. Obviously the 'H' is for Heritage, but what's interesting is that this machine has a 10 "bordered" panel but 10A colored controls. It was also built in Dec 1978, yet the chrome door models continued to be offered for several more years. Internally, the RRH-10 is identical to the 10. | ||
RR-10A The 10A features the same engineering changes as the 9TA (note the lack of painted border on the control panel). The button backgrounds are now an orangy-brown.The case is woodgrain vinyl. As with most Radaranges, there were multiple revisions (see numbers below). P74750-1M: Initial release. |
In the late 1970's, Amana was preparing to debut a new look for the Radarange line, still using the same tried-and-true technologies of the RR series. The first update was known as the RRL's, and were sold concurrently with the chrome door models. These are rectilinear in design without excess chrome or other adornments yet they are unmistakenly Radaranges, right down to the three mechanical pushbuttons. Shortly after the chrome door models went out of production, a new line was introduced reviving the RR nomenclature. Perhaps the RRLs were already looking dated with their boxy, woodgrain aesthetics. The RR-700 and RR-900 shown below from 1985 were very popular and once again, introduced chrome details with a modern twist. They are easily identified by their spring-loaded door handles. Being half a decade newer than the RRL's, they take advantage of a lot of cost-reductions, but I should add, are very well engineered. These machines are the last to use the traditional RR glass trays. |
Examples of RRL and "new RR" machines.... | ||
RRL-9TA This is the RRL series equivalent of the RR-9TA. It retains the solid steel and expert craftsmanship of the earlier models and also features the classic red LED look, but the door and controls are more in-line with late 70's early 80's styling. 73 lbs. net weight. | ||
RRL-10A This is the Touchmatic II version of the RRL line. Note the button background color that matches the RR-10A. The orange trim became more subdued on later RRL-10As. Build date of January 1980. RRL-10C (not pictured) Has a revised vent appearance but is otherwise identical. A stopgap until the major design overhaul shown below. |
Did you know? | Cooking time and Cookmatic power levels can be changed on the fly on the Touchmatic machines. Simply enter the new time and function (Cook, Defrost, etc.) while the oven is cooking and press Start. The RR won't miss a beat! | |
RR-700 A throwback to analog appearance with a digital flair. One knob is a rotary encoder for setting cooking time & temp, the other is a variable pot to vary the Cookmatic level (which shows as progressive bars along the bottom of the display). When turned fully CCW, setting the Cook time and pressing Start puts the machine in Timer mode. This model debuted for 1982. Hold in Start for 2 seconds to enter Clock Setting mode. Dial in time of day. Press Start again. RR-700 Built-In Click HERE to see the built-in version (Sep 1985). A factory plate blocks the front exhaust vent and notice how the door hinges on the side. Yet it's still marked RR-700. |
RR-900 Like the 700 above, you still have mechanical switches for Start/Stop/Light, but a dimmer vacuum fluorescent display and smaller "pushbuttons" that resemble the glass touchplates of old, but are actually dome switches. Functionally, this is a basic Touchmatic with adjustable cooking power, much like the old RR-9T. Sep 1982. |
OK, the wheels are starting to come off. It's the early 80's and the RRL series needs a facelift. The woodgrain gets pulled, the orange accents are out, and the control panel gets a contemporary makeover. Voila! A fresh look. The RRL-820 below from 1985 is a good example of this. Meanwhile, as the thought probably went, some cost could probably be taken out of the new RR series, and a unified look given to the control panel to match the new RRLs. There are lots of variations on both of these series, but as my focus is primarily on the originals, I'll only document a couple of these newer machines below. Small, cheap microwaves are starting to flood the market and the overly-built Radarange isn't the only game in town. A new, smaller model having almost nothing in common with the old machines is introduced. These have no interior trays, lots of thin metal and cheap plastic, and get the 'two-rows of buttons' look to the keypad to match the larger machines. |
Family-Wide Facelift | ||
RRL-820 An example of the RRL-update. They don't get much simpler than this. One program. No temp probe. You get a digital keypad and a cookmatic level. Note the revised control panel and lack of mechanical Start/Stop/Light switches. Manufactured Sep 1985. Additionally, RR-910 and RR-1010 machines were released the same year, each with additional features over the 820 but keeping with the new family appearance. |
RR-1050 An example of the 'new-RR'-update. And, like the RRL-820 above, the revised double-row family look control panel for the 'new RR' series. Again, no mechanical Start/Stop/Light switches and plastic controls. At least the 1050-level means you get 'Accutemp' and 'Accuthaw'. Aug 1985. | ||
End of the Line... | RS415T And, for continuity, the smaller, less expensive model showing the double-row keypad. And yes, that's the model number. |
Now that's different! | ||
Replacement Panel - Based on build-date, this machine should have a red-LED 9T panel with glass touchplate, but instead has this cheaper plastic panel and vac fluorescent display very similar to the 8T above. My assumption is panels such as this were offered for service when originals became no longer available. | ||
See Q&A Section
Built-In Kit - In the collection is both the UL approved galvanized wall sleeve and trimwork shown at left that allows any countertop model Radarange to be built-in to the wall and still allow proper air circulation. The R0s - Starting approximately 1979, Amana made a line of built-in-specific models with the R0 prefix. All have integral galvanized sheetmetal housings to allow air circulation and have side-swinging doors hinged on the left. Air vents are along the top and bottom front of the unit. Shipping weight was 115 lbs. The R0-10A was the Touchmatic II version and the R0-24-8 was similar to the units used in the Amana 3+1 cooking centers, having a backlit analog timer, Cookmatic control and temp hold dial, all behind black glass. |
See Q&A Section
Euro-Radaranges - While very rare, there were Radaranges made for the 220v 50Hz Euro market. This example is marked as an RR-5B though it appears to be similar to a US-made RR-9. Notice the ISO-centric control markings. | |
The RMC-Series - This RMC-30 was part of the Radarange Plus Series marketed in the late 70's/early 80's. It adds the functionality of a Touchmatic II microwave with the browning capability of a convection oven. The size is imposing, dwarfing a traditional Radarange, and it's got the weight to match. A 'Cookmatic' version with mechanical timer was also offered. Note the metal backing rack. The analog timer version was the RMC-20. |
RCM-9 A Frigidaire microwave! Actually, it's an Amana Radarange in disguise, pretty much an RR-9 equivalent with the same heavy-duty power supply and Raytheon magnetron. Interestingly, it has a woodgrain cabinet. The rear dataplate appears similar in size and shape to the Amana yet lists Frigidaire as the manufacturer. The keypad font matches Frigidaire's line of Touch n' Cook digitally controlled appliances. Click HERE for the unique interior door text. Manufactured July '77. | ||
Pics to Come...
The R-Series - Occasionally, I get contacted about an R-1 or R-2 or R-x machine. Apparently, Amana sold a lesser known series of Radaranges in parallel with the RR series starting in the very late 60's. Having a very distinctive commercial look, it's unclear if this was the initial intent. |
Accessories | |
A number of Corning pieces were made for the Amana Radarange line, many incorporating internal RF-absorbing plates that convert microwave energy into thermally conducted energy that provides traditional searing, baking and crisping. Most include instructions to "pre-heat" the cookware in the microwave for several minutes before use. This is the MW-10 covered Browning Skillet which measures approximately 10x10x2. Corning also made similar dishes for Litton with a very 70's yellow/orange sunburst pattern though they're hard to find. Even tougher is the design for GE microwaves featuring a random 'sawtooth' electronic waveform pattern. |
The 12" Pizza Crisper works on the same principal. While the cheese melts and the toppings cook, the crisper plate crisps the crust from below.- MW-12A. | |
The MCT-1 Probe is for Candymaking with compatible Radaranges and was sold separately, though sometimes included with other accessories to 'make the sale' of a new Radarange. The temp range is significantly higher than the brown corded probe which tops out at 190F. | |
My hunch is that most Country Cookers saw primary duty outside of the microwave ovens they were designed for. Measuring 10-3/4 tall and approximately 4qt in volume, these covered stoneware vessels are also oven-compatible. They were made by both Western Stoneware and Cardinal Stoneware. |
MWK-30 Cookit Grill. This 3 piece set is designed for cooking bacon, making burgers and grilling other meats. It consists of the MR-1 rack, MW-2 base and the Pyrex MW-2C lid. |
This is the small, round browning skillet offered by Amana. No model number imprinted on the handle. Approximately 6-3/4" diameter by 2" deep. | |
MWP-1 - Everyone's favorite cardboard flavored popcorn! The base concentrates RF energy for popping regular popcorn kernels without oil or butter; straight from the era of air-poppers. Since corn kernels have very little moisture content, popping any kind of popcorn in the microwave can be very hard on the magnetron. |
MCM-4A Coffee Maker - There was also a straight MCM-4. This one is new in the box and I'm not sure how inclined I am to indulge in the promise of microwave coffee. | |
Made of polysulfone, an analog thermometer made by Taylor Instruments was also offered. Registering 0-220F on a 1-1/2" dial it is completely microwave safe and "fast acting". | |
The introduction of a new way of cooking meant that all the traditional recipes in the card file were no longer applicable at mealtime. While not accessories, per se, several different cookbooks were released by Amana with tips, suggestions and recipes for getting the most out of your Radarange. These were often included as part of the sales package with your new machine. The book at left is copyright 1968 (circa the RR2 release) and includes inserts for operation of the 3H (1971). It has a three-ring-binder format. In 1972, Amana released the "New Microwave Oven Cooking Guide" to coincide with the RR-4 release. This is also a 3-ring-binder format though more professionally done. These two make up the early Amana cookbooks worth picking up. Publications after this were more traditional, though probably more useful as actual cookbooks. |
And what better place to put those new microwave recipes than in the Radarange Recipe File. |
Machines for Sale Every now and then I come across a duplicate machine that deserves a home. When that happens, and time willing, I'll offer it in this section. These machines are cleaned, repaired, any worn parts replaced, the magnetron is performance checked and the whole machine gets an RF-leak test. Yeah, shipping is a killer. |
None at this time.

We have some pretty smart people on this forum so i was thinking of all my years in the business I have seen some pretty unusual/crazy problems and the repairs I had to do that solved it was something no one would believe.
So in that light I thought it would be interesting to hear what others have seen and repaired. Don't need to go into detail or even what kind of vehicle it was if you don't want to.
So I'll start with one of my many.
Years ago had a car that was at 2 other places and the problem was the car would NOT SHUT OFF. Turn the key off and it would keep on running. Everything in the car worked as it should. Had to pull the coil wire to shut the car off.
Had to change the instrument/gauge assembly.

Mario Seemingly infinite Mario parodies! Some of the funniest Flash movies ever conceived!
Author Comments
6/13/2011: Okay so I've been getting some negative reviews recently on behalf of what I've said to one user. It is now grown into a messy argument, which I did not ask for. Long story short, these reviews I've received have been the same discussion dragged on, copying and pasting what I responded to. In other words, this was committed:
"f. Do not use the review field to address other user's reviews you didn't agree with. You are to be reviewing the submission, not other people's reviews."
Yes, this flash is short, yes this flash wasn't well animated back then. It was my first flash! Deal with it! There's criticism, and then there's insulting. If I see another review of what's been discussed previously, I'm going to file to them all because I've had it over the rooftop.
Seriously, I haven't made a flash in a while, and now that I think about it, but now I'm glad I didn't get back to it.
2/20/2011: Wow! It's been a while since I've updated this page. Anyway I was looking at the recent comments, or at least what date's posted, and I've been asked many times what this "Click here if you hated it" button does. Since this flash is over five years old, I think it's best to give it out now. What that button does is it leads to a flash I posted a link to called "E=Shitf*ck". It's a funny flash of flashy colors with images of Albert Einstein. It's about a minute or so long, and it's pretty funny to me. So there's really no harm, well unless you're epileptic which I would never want to show it to. The submission link is posted below:
http://www.newgrounds.com /portal/view/240285
Anyways, I wanted to point this out because I've been asked this when looking at the comments. Hope that answers everyone's question. Have fun.
1/6/06: Yay! over 25k views now, cool! My first view jewel, or whatever it's called. Thank you for enjoying my movie, ppl!! I'm glad you all liked it!
1/4/06: Here's a little info about this movie: My first movie, listed in the Mario Parodies, played at 27fps, and the song used for the fight scene was "Sum41 - Still Waiting". I hope you enjoy.
11/19/05: Ok, no offense to you all, but I'm getting sick and tired of you guys complaining about how short it is. Get over it! It's a quickie. I will be making a sequal soon, and that will be much longer than this one. If I get another complaint about this, I'm going to get extremely pissed off! So stop complaining!
UPDATE: Ok, I know that this movie was short, and I know that a lot of you are complaining about it. Just enjoy it, It's a quickie.
Update: WOW!! An awesome score I have. Thanks everyone. I never thought about how much You Guys Would Love This. DAMN!!
Hello, Newgrounds. This is my first flash movie. If you don't like sprite movies, I'm warning you once, get out! If you have bad comments to say, say it all you want and get yourself banned. For others, En
joy, and vote fairly.
Rated 0.5 / 5 stars
Bubbles was being generous
There is no rule on the guidelines about that! What are you going on about, its a horrible animation and i read that other guys comment that he was standing up for as well. Sure its your first congrats it wasn't good (You admitted to that) And yet you think people should cut you slack because of this? And to top it if he never said anything about it being to short he said it wasn't good and explained why.
Seriously Stop whining about the comments that are true its horrible and you'll have to deal with it.
Wow... okay, I've taken one's opinions before, despite how disagreeable I was, but now this is clearly harassment. Yes, there is a guideline in reviewing flash movies that states you aren't supposed to be reviewing someone else's thoughts and opinions. If you seriously can't find this rule, then allow me to copy and paste it in this respond box and explain afterwards!
"f. Do not use the review field to address other user's reviews you didn't agree with. You are to be reviewing the submission, not other people's reviews."
DrBubbles clearly copied and pasted what I responded to user, aaagk, placed it in his review box, just to argue back at me. That is not how you review a flash! It's supposed to be a review, not a forum response. Plus, considering that you're dragging this subject matter even further, I could easily report yours and DrBubbles reviews to Tom Fulp in removal of them. So if you're really saying he was being "generous", you better start having second thoughts at this point.
Yes I know he didn't mention the length of my flash, but since that's been addressed from aaagk and my response was included in DrBubble's review, then it is to be brought into discussion if he wants to argue. And yes, what I said, this being my first flash, is in fact a legitimate reason for being what it is. No one's perfect and dandy the first time. Randy Solem's first flash, Mario Gets Lucky, isn't as good as it was back then. Neither was it for any other user on the site. Imagine if The Wizard of Oz was criticized for the same reasons as what's going on here. "Oh the costume is so obvious on the Cowardly Lion, I can see Ray Bolger's real skin under his Scarcrow mask! OH and the backgrounds are nothing but wallpaper!" that's how it was made back in the 30's. A very unfair piece of judgement, right? Same principle applies to here. I was new at it. It's not like this was going to be a fulfilled masterpiece. I could simply redo flash from scratch now, and it would look better.
If you, aaagk, and DrBubbles disliked this flash, that's fine. And just because I argue at them doesn't mean I'm forcing them to change their opinion. So don't force me to agree with you. Telling me to stop "whining", when I really I was actually ARGUING, and telling me to deal with that the flash is crap is pretty self-explanatory. DrBubbles was doing the same thing in that "all negative reviews are the truth". Seriously, there's always a backlash on any praised flash which will have an argument back, even to Adam Phillip's flashes, as rare as it is.
For other viewers who reads this, if I seriously see another review of this topic, I'm just going to report all of this mess Tom Fulp. Oh and don't bother sending me a message at my inbox just to continue arguing like what DrBubbles did. All I'll do is just remove it.
Rated 2 / 5 stars
Not good.
Dude, this was my first flash. It may sound like a cop out excuse to you, but I had little experience back then, and had several problems with he program to where it took me three months to make. If I were to make this flash now, I would have better animation and choreography.
What kind of a response is that? So maybe you could make it better now the point is RIGHT NOW this animation isn't good for the reasons below that gave you low scores "don't need me to point out whats already been said" but how does a comment like that get rated negative its all the truth. Im not going to boost your score just because you were having issues or because your inexperienced i will gladly give your better peices a higher rating. Some of the below obviously havn't seen many good sprite work.
You get a 4 for adding music and smooth movment even if it was very limited.
You know... after looking through your profile, and seeing that there's no flash submissions at all, I have to ask. Who the hell do you think you are to copy and paste what I've said and judge me like a noob? Isn't there a rule on the review guidelines where you shouldn't do that? I could simply report this and have your comment removed on behalf of this stunt. And given that you have no flash experience, I doubt you'd say anything different if you ever did. I have had MANY of the same complaint over time; it's too short, it's too short, it's too short. Yeah, tell me something I don't know. That's how the flash was made back then! Get over it. Move on with your life!
The next time you leave a review on another flash, don't ever copy the creators responses or feedback in your own comments to provide something as if they're not open to criticism. You're not supposed to do that.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
2 Things
1. At least 5 comments about "Don't click I Hate This", no comments about "GUESS WHAT JUST HAPPENED WHEN I CLICKED IT?!" I dun wanna click it... I dun like this, but I dun HATE it... WHAT HAPPENS?!?!?!?!?!?!?
2. Kinda bad, kinda good... okay, not good, but I give you a pity 5. This looked nothing like Mario... mostly because fireballs don't explode, and a ground pound can't kill everything on the screen.... unless it's Kirby's CRASH ability. (Hoping I just gave you an idea, the PUFFCAPE! Lulz, kthxbai!)
1. That whole "Click here if you hated this" button was some joke that lead to a "Turd of the Week" flash entitled E=Shitfu*ck. It plays some stupid as Death Metal song while displaying images of Albert Einstein and flashing colors. Fastest way to give a seizure to someone epileptic if you ask me. XD I hope I didn't give that to anyone. The idea behind that whole "I hated this flash" Button originated from some of Randy's old flash sites. One of them lead me to an N*Sync or Backstreet Boys website when I clicked on one out of curiosity. Thought it was hysterical.
2. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy this flash. It's understandable from where you're coming from on the logic. You don't always have to be perfect on the logic but point proven. Thanks for the feedback.

The product isolated as colourless crystals from the reaction system TeCl4-SbCl5-18-crown-6-MeCN has been identified (X-ray diffraction studies) as the ionic salt [(18-crown-6)Te(Cl)(mu-O)(2)Te(Cl)(18-crown-6)][SbCl6](2). The mu-oxo-bridged cations have a centre of inversion and feature a distorted eight-coordinate metal environment involving two bridging oxygen atoms (Te-O 1.960(4) Angstrom), one terminal chlorine atom (Te-CI 2.361(2) A) and five of the six oxygen atoms of the crown ligand (Te-O 2.549(4)-2.886(5) Angstrom). The question of stereochemical involvement of the lone pair of electrons associated with each Te(IV) centre is considered. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Thank you, Jen. He was a superb human being and an amazing friend. It is sad that he was ill the past several years and not as independent as he had wanted. His passing is a great loss, and, you are right, he was our family of the heart. I am so sorry about the loss of your father. When a parent passes on, it is the end of era for us, something deeply profound. I hope your good memories of him sustain you. xoxoxoxoxo,

In 1961, ranch hands discovered the headstone and grave. Oregon Trail historian, Paul Henderson, found the story of Joel's death in a companion's diary. Because a planned stock reservoir threatened the gravesite, the young boy was reinterred about Ľ mile to the west, next to Private Ralston Baker, killed in an Indian skirmish on May 1, 1867. The original headstone was placed on Hembree's new grave.
400 feet to the north is the site of the 1860's La Prele Stage and Pony Express Station.

Rice Group Discovers Solitons in Laser-Cooled Atoms, Goes to Press
A press release that went public on July 18 emphasizes applying a new discovery in
laser-cooled atoms, long-lived waves called solitons, to detection of geologic events
on Earth and on other planets. The discovery by Randall Hulet's group at Rice University
promises to improve the sensitivity of atom interferometers. The introduction to the
press release follows:
Breakthrough research on waves of ultra-cold atoms may lead to sophisticated atom
lasers that might eventually predict volcanic eruptions on Earth and map a probable
subsurface ocean on Jupiter's moon Europa.
The atoms were manipulated to form tidy bundles of waves, called solitons, which
retained their shape and strength. They were created in a laboratory at Rice University,
Houston, under a grant from NASA's Biological and Physical Research Program through the
Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif.
Normally, when a wave forms -- whether in water, light or atoms -- it tends to spread
out as it travels. Not so with a soliton wave. It maintains its perfect shape without
spreading. In the Rice University research, the solitons are localized bundles of atom
Atom-wave solitons could be used in advanced lasers, which use atoms instead of light
photons. Dr. Randall Hulet, the Rice University physics and astronomy professor who
led the research team, said atom lasers may have many applications, some not yet
